Borchardt Sale

Big Norm · 02-22-2007, 07:26 AM

Ok gentlemen! Here is another specimen that I think might be a excellent gun for sale. (I have previously mentioned another under a 1918 artillery). It is a Borchardt (but there is no mention as to whether or not it is a DWM or a Loews). Its kinda expensive, but these specimens are normally expensive anyway. But its nice to mention it anyway. Too very often we criticise lugers and I feel obliged to mention something good for a change.

The only objection that I would like to mention is that the case does not contain an oiling can and that the holster seems to be a wee bit used. I am not bidding on it because I already have a DWM Borchardt (which, MHO, has a better holster, but w/o the nose strap and a matching mag). I am also not bidding on it because I have some expensive repairs to do on my motor home and some talking to do to the IRS. But look at it and enjoy.
